उत्तर
This statement is false.
Explanation:
The consumer redressal process is neither simple nor quick. Although consumer commissions at the district, state, and national levels have been established to provide speedy and inexpensive resolution of consumer disputes, the process can still be complex and time-consuming. Cases are required to be disposed of within 90 days, but appeals and procedural requirements often extend the duration.
